Cleveland area. So can pretty much swing by any place in Ohio on the way down.

I'd like to bring the old two-smoke back down again. Only way I can go this year is if someone wants to trailer down with me and split the gas/lodging. Just too expensive for me to go alone.

Only supposed to rain early morning Friday now, so Thursday night setting up camp should be dry. Race bike motor still at the builder (since March!) so just bike show and parade lap for me. And drinking. Ill be doing a lot of that.

Problem you'll run into even with 600, is that on any type of bump, even small, all the force from the weight of the bike and carrier (which is now magnitudes higher, physics and shit) will all be put on the few bolts that hold that hitch together. It will surpass the tongue weight no doubt. A properly weighted trailer takes all that stress and distributes it, mostly to the wheels 👍 Cars and bikes are big investments, ain't worth breaking both!

Something you could do. Get the hitch on the car. Rent a uhaul motorcycle trailer just for the track days. Not too expensive and nothing to store. And your hitch will handle that no problem.

You won't find a trailer hitch for an Impreza with a tongue weight that can support the carrier loaded with a bike. Most car hitches are only good to about 250lbs on the tongue. And those carrier styles are all tongue weight. Go over 200lbs and the whole hitch will rip off on the first bump.

Anybody else going? I got myself a camping spot and will be there from Thursday night til Sunday evening. I'm going solo, and can have up to 3 tents in my spot, so there's room for more if you get yourself a weekend pass. Rainy on Friday, but looks to be good the rest of the time.

Wanted to say thanks for setting up the trip Casper Sorry I wasn't more social, but first time to the gap so I had to get the Dragon in as much as I could during the dry. Was going to come hang out Saturday night by the fire but since I had to leave at 6am, I figured it best I stay away. If booze is around, I tend to drink it Will be back next year wherever it may be on a different 2 stroke machine.

Halp Me!!!!

She likes it like that. Just be gentle

You guys could have moved my bike if it was in the way!

Plan still for Devil's Triangle tomorrow? I wanna go. My alarm didn't get me up this morning so I missed the ride

I got lucky and got the Dragon in today while it was dry. No traffic at all. One trooper busy with a cage. Was fun;

That sucked. I think you ended up passing me in Tennessee. Dark Tacoma?

Bad accident on 75 south past Florence and before Lexington, big fire. Been stopped for 50min now. Hot as hell

People always look at me fun when I go on week long vacations with just a backpack. Was Army, but same packing disciplines in the infantry ☺️

Somehow they still had rooms available all the way through. I'm booked on the pool side. Will be headed out Wednesday morning in the toy hauler.

Last call if anyone wants to trailer down in the morning, one spot free (can fit a third if it's a smaller bike). Would be good if you have a vintage bike or something similar that you don't want to put huge mileage on. I'm Cleveland west-side, gimme a text if you are interested as I probably won't be checking the forum tonight- 440-666-5733/Eric

Sunday now? Cool, I'll be there. Medium-Fast. I'm going to trailer the trailer queen down, I have another spot if anyone doesn't want to ride there...

Made it a whopping 2 miles on the bike before I turned around. Just can't handle the cold anymore. Driving in the car now.

I'm going to say fuck it, double up on the hoddies, and just ride tomorrow. Looking like no rain after 11am, just farkin chilly.

I 'should' be there, although these days I make plans and something for work always comes up. But count me in.
